Bomb Squad

Bomb Squad

Race the Clock to Defuse a Paint Bomb with Your Teens

Bomb Squad on Crescent Street is a group action game that puts a new spin on the escape room. Teams of 2 to 6 players work through a series of challenge rooms, earning extra time for a final attempt to defuse a paint bomb. If the team runs out of time, the bomb goes off and everyone is covered in paint.

Where:

🚇 Guy-Concordia

Highlights:

• A Fresh Take on the Escape Room: Rather than one themed puzzle room, teams move through several rooms, each testing a different skill, before reaching the bomb.
  
  
• Four Distinct Challenges: The Operation calls for following instructions as a team, The Lasers has players crossing a room filled with laser beams, The Sounds tests memory with sound sequences, and The Grid asks players to activate sensors without stepping on trapped tiles.
  
  
• A Colourful Finale: Points earned in each challenge add time in the final room. If the team fails to defuse the bomb in time, the players are covered in paint.
  
  
• Protective Gear Provided: Every player receives a full protective suit to wear in the final room.
  
  
• Bilingual Gameplay: The game is offered in French and English, chosen on site.

Recommended Audience:
This is a good outing for parents with teens and young adults in Montreal who enjoy teamwork and quick thinking and want something more active than a typical escape room.

What to Expect:
About one hour of high energy teamwork through four challenge rooms, ending with a race to defuse a paint bomb.

Some things to consider during your visit:

• You Will Work Up a Sweat: The challenges are active enough that staff mention beforehand that sweating is normal. Water stations are set up at the front and partway through the activities, and light, comfortable clothing will make the hour easier.

• No Cancellations or Refunds: Bookings cannot be cancelled or refunded, but they can be changed up to 24 hours before your session through the confirmation email or by contacting the centre. If a player cannot attend, someone else can take their spot, as long as the team still has at least 2 people.

• Cash Is Not Accepted: A deposit is paid online when booking, and the balance is paid on site by credit or debit card.
  
  
• Paint Can Find Its Way Through Gaps: Make sure everyone's protective suit is fully closed before the final room, as paint can get through if it is not done up properly. Any paint that does get through is water washable.
  
  
• Teams Are Capped at Six Players: Each team has 2 to 6 people. Larger groups are welcome, with sessions starting every 20 minutes, and anyone waiting can watch the active team on the room cameras.
  
  
• Younger Teens Need Someone 15 or Older: Bomb Squad is open to ages 7 and up, and adult supervision is recommended for players up to age 15. No extra chaperone is needed as long as at least one participant is 15 or older.
  
  
• No Parking Information Listed: Bomb Squad's website does not list parking options, so taking the metro to Guy-Concordia may be the simpler option.
